Datang: Touching the Corpse Li Yuanba at the Beginning

Li Shimin really took the jealousy of people in the pass to the extreme, even his own son's jealousy.

"What's worth noting about Qibi Heli? A swaying villain, just a lost dog."

Hearing Li Shimin's words, Changsun Wuji shook his head. He thought so too at the beginning, but after seeing Li Wenhao's second letter, he realized that things were far from that simple.

"Your Majesty, open the second letter and have a look!"

Chapter 166 The Importance of Businessmen

"Second letter?"

Li Shimin opened the letter and saw that the front was still asking for warmth, but at the back, Li Wenhao asked Changsun Wuji a question, what do you think of Qibi Heli?

After reading this, Li Shimin's vision became deeper.

"Auxiliary machine, Dalang, what does this mean?"

"Based on what you and I know about Da Lang, he will definitely not be aimless."

Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, it is precisely because I know that the prince will not target indiscriminately that I did not understand the deep meaning of the prince's last question."

"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince killed Qibi Heli's son in the grassland, and forcibly ordered Qibi Heli to destroy Xue Yantuo."

"Auxiliary machine, then what do you mean by Dalang's question?"

"Qibi Heli..."

"Qibi..."

Changsun Wuji muttered a few times, as if he was guessing Qibi Heli based on what he knew.

hiss!

"Your Majesty, I seem to understand what the prince means."

"Although Qibi Heli followed Jieli first and then turned to Tuli, but looking carefully, the strength of his tribe has not been damaged, and..."

"And he's an ambitious man."

Li Shimin took the words and said.

"It seems that Da Lang is telling us to be wary of Qibi Heli. In this way, auxiliary machine, you can find Fangdu, and some of you can make arrangements to cheer up the troops stationed at the border. Dalang may be afraid that Qibi Heli will go off the rails. "

On Hebei Road, in the prince's mansion, Li Wenhao was writing this on a piece of paper.

At the beginning of the scene, Zhang Juzheng and others were looking at Li Wenhao suspiciously. Originally, they wanted to ask about the chamber of commerce, but Li Wenhao told them to wait.

"Okay, with this, you can open a chamber of commerce and make money."

Li Wenhao shook the paper in his hand, "Go back and carve a tablet of what is written on it, and stand it at the entrance of the chamber of commerce. Don't stand still, let someone do it quickly?"

"Wait, Your Highness, I have another question"

Holding the paper, Mu Yikuan was about to find someone to engrave. He was about to walk out before he realized that he was looking for Li Wenhao for a big deal this time.

At this time, Mu Yikuan's aura has stabilized a lot, he is no longer that merchant in the market, but more like a big manager in charge of millions of dollars in food.

"what is the problem?"

Li Wenhao asked.

"Are we really selling everything?"

"Do you still want to do business with those alien races?"

"Sell, sell anything as long as you make money. If they can afford the money, we can help them fight wars. This is called supply and demand. We don't necessarily have to produce those things, but we can be the porters of those rare treasures and bring them back to the Western Regions." Sell ​​the jade from Goryeo to Goguryeo, sell the wild ginseng from Goryeo to the Western Regions, and earn the difference.”

"You are a merchant, so you don't need to teach me these methods, do you?"

"I naturally understand these methods, but His Royal Highness, merchants are lowly business, will you be criticized for acting like this as a prince?"

"Will His Majesty allow it?"

Mu Yikuan's words were somewhat disturbing. This era is extremely unfriendly to businessmen, and it can even be said to be contemptuous.

It is generally believed that businessmen just speculate and do nothing to produce, and sarcasm is even more common in the poems of literati.

For example, there are few horses and carriages in front of the door, and the eldest is married as a businessman's wife.

For example, a businessman pays more attention to profit than parting...

There is no problem with the poems, and they are even passed down to later generations as classics, but businessmen have been repeatedly belittled.

Li Wenhao really wanted to scold the shitty hierarchy of this era, what are scholars, farmers, businessmen, without these merchants selling their goods all over the world, wouldn't those products and crops rot in the ground?

Is it true that Lychee can only laugh like a concubine in the world of mortals?

Can't the people have a taste?

Besides, merchants doing business all over the world have also imperceptibly promoted the integration of the north and the south, and the integration of the nationalities. It's just that ordinary people can't figure it out.

Li Wenhao looked up at Mu Yikuan, and asked, "Without these merchants, how would I, a northerner, be able to wear Shu brocade? Have I seen Su embroidery? How could he, a southerner, have seen fur?"

"As a businessman, you don't even understand this, do you?"

"Only by moving the goods can bring benefits. Why is the so-called rare goods inhabitable?"

"Why is the fur that can be seen everywhere in my north become a rare thing in the south?"

Mu Yikuan was taken aback, he didn't expect Li Wenhao to attach so much importance to businessmen.

"Remember, even a piece of straw paper in this world has its role. Don't underestimate businessmen, don't underestimate yourself. Merchant is not a humble job. This world wants to develop and people want to live their lives. It’s better not to be without him.”

Then, he glanced at Mu Yikuan, then turned his gaze to Zhang Juzheng, and said with a smile, "I said before that there is no hierarchy in all walks of life in Hebei Province, and they are all an important part of my Tang Dynasty's development. On the other hand, Let me ask you, if there is no business, how will my Fanyang City develop?"

"Is it by farming?"

Mu Yikuan and Zhang Juzheng were taken aback. They had thought about this question, but they were definitely not as comprehensive as Li Wenhao thought.

Li Wenhao sighed, "Hebei Road has been fighting for many years, most of the fields are barren, young and old are killed in battle, women and children are powerless, this piece of land is already seriously damaged, even if we plant high-yield, easy-to-survive potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. For a time, it is difficult to restore the original grandeur without ten years of farming alone."

"People can suffer with us for two years, but not for ten years. We have to find a way to support and enrich the people. Now the people are willing to share our troubles with us. We must take this opportunity to make Hebei Dao rich. Only Only in this way will the common people have a bright future and will be willing to stand with us all the time.”

"The life of the imperial court is not easy now, and the money in the treasury is also less and less. We can't pin our hopes on the imperial court, so we can only rely on ourselves."

"Fanyang City has been ransacked by the Turks and turned into a piece of red land. If we want to rise quickly, we must have our own characteristics. Mu Yikuan is in charge of money and food. You should know that since we came to Hebei Road, until now, only It is how much food is consumed to feed these people."

"This is just spring plowing. There are at least five months until the autumn harvest. How much food will we consume in these five months?"

"If you don't want to save yourself, should you wait for Yizi to eat?"

Li Wenhao's words hit the hearts of the two of them heavily, they didn't expect Li Wenhao to think so much.

I thought what they were doing now was good enough, but after a closer look, what they were doing was not shit, and they didn't even meet the most basic requirements.

"When the curtain is wide, this Fanyang city is still too small. The previous city wall can be used as the inner city, but it needs to be expanded, at least five times the size of the current one. I want to make the whole of Fanyang a holy place for merchants from all over the world, and a place where money and food flow from all over the world. Center, can you do it?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, within two years, I will definitely achieve His Highness's goal."

"Two years is too long. I can't wait, and neither can my enemies. At the end of the year, at the end of the year, I want Fanyang City to take shape. At that time, I will invite merchants from all over the world to Fanyang. At that time, I will hold a The grand auction has established Fanyang City's status as a mecca for merchants in one fell swoop, don't let me down."

PS: Today's copy is delivered, and I will start writing tomorrow's.

Chapter 167 Da Lang, You Figure It Out

"Your Highness, you have said so much, but you haven't said what we want to sell?"

"Without goods, how do we do business?"

At the beginning of the scene, Li Wenhao's words are all right, but, a businessman must have goods, and if there is no goods, what is it called?

"Sell goods?"

"Selling goods is just the lowest among merchants. What I have to do is empty-handed and let them take the initiative to send things to me for sale."

Li Wenhao's words aroused the curiosity of the two of them again, looking at the two scratching their heads, Li Wenhao spoke directly.

"I want to enclose hundreds of acres of land here"

Pointing to a place near Fanyang City on the map, Li Wenhao said, "After the land is circled, I will build it into a world-renowned trading center."

"With this trading center, if it becomes famous among countries at the end of the year, there will naturally be countless people begging us to sell their products in our trading center."

……

In the next few days, the entire Fanyang City was extremely busy.

The land that Li Wenhao circled was [-] mu, and he mobilized those with more male families to come and dig it up.

If the building wants to be built high, the foundation must be deep. It is said that more people make things easier. With the help of tens of thousands of people around Fanyang City, the prototype of a huge building has already been laid here in just over a month.

This building occupies at least [-] acres of land. In the middle is a huge five-story wooden building, surrounded by huge two-story wooden buildings.

No matter which building is built very delicately.

There is also a huge courtyard in front of it, this courtyard covers an area of ​​[-] mu, decorated with ancient trees and boulders.

Li Wenhao also ordered people to search for those exotic flowers and weeds, and all of them were picked and planted in this courtyard to show their luxury.

Seeing the huge building complex taking shape day by day, and the expansion of Fanyang City gradually showing what it should look like, Li Wenhao felt even more satisfied.

This Fan Yang is the capital of future generations. Li Wenhao also has the intention of moving the capital here in the future when he expands Fan Yang. After all, in terms of location, this place is definitely better than Chang'an.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Chang'an sent two adults with an imperial decree in their hands, saying that it is His Majesty's order to let you stop messing around and cancel the New Deal."

"Oh? Follow me!"

Li Wenhao put down the stake in his hand and raised his eyebrows.

This is the time when everyone is working in full swing, and someone dares to pour cold water on it?

Still holding Li Shimin's imperial decree?

Li Wenhao curled his lips, and was used as a gun by his cheap old man again.

"Prince Li Wenhao accepts the order!"

The two old men held up the imperial decree with wild faces, and looked at Li Wenhao contemptuously. The two of them had already studied how to deal with Li Wenhao on the way here.

"I have something to say, I have to fart, I don't have time to coax you."

"Father is really, let you two immortals come to deliver the decree, won't you be afraid to die of exhaustion on the way?"
